In working as an ASVAB tutor, I remind my students of the importance of knowing how to work with fractions on the ASVAB. In my study guide, The ASVAB Tutor’s Arithmetic Reasoning Study Guide, I review 15 subtopics in Arithmetic Reasoning. Fractions is one of these 15 subtopics. In this section, I review converting improper fractions to mixed numbers, mixed numbers to improper fractions, adding fractions, subtracting fractions, multiplying fractions, dividing fractions, and reducing fractions. Today’s question requires the conversion of an improper fraction into a mixed number. Do you know how to change a mixed number into an improper fraction? I will present the answer and explanation tomorrow.
